Chapter 246: Crisis



Xia Chujian looked into the house while thinking about something.

Despite the loud noise, no one came to answer the door next door, not even a sound of people scolding the big black dog.

This is not right.

Xia Chujian began to walk inside, calling out tentatively, "Wangyou! Yu Wangyou! Mr. Yu! Mrs. Yu! Are you home?"

She screamed a few times before she remembered that she was still wearing Shao Siming's mecha helmet. It would be difficult to explain if the Yu family saw her.

But just as she was about to put the helmet away, a few lines of subtitles suddenly appeared on the helmet's eye-screen display.

"Extremely large doses of Teflon were detected in the air."

"If you take off your helmet, you will fall unconscious within three minutes."

β€œIt is recommended not to remove the helmet.”

Xia Chujian: β€œ!!!”

Is there an overdose of Teflon in the air?!

Xia Chujian's chemistry grades were okay, and she vaguely remembered that Teflon was a volatile gas that could cause a person to fall into a coma.

Since the mecha's intelligent system said there is a super large dose, then there must be a super large dose!

Then the people from the Yu family...

Xia Chujian stopped immediately, and then a few lines of words appeared on the eye display screen of the mecha's helmet.

"Increasingly high levels of methane are being detected in the air!"

"Danger! Danger! Danger!"

"Please leave the scene immediately! Please leave the scene immediately! Please leave the scene immediately!"

Methane?!

Xia Chujian used his decent knowledge of chemistry to know that this was the main component of natural gas.

What's going on tonight?

Will the test focus on chemical knowledge?

Xia Chujian muttered to himself, feeling confused and uncertain.

Because their building is an old one, it only has a very old natural gas pipeline system, which is the main energy source besides electricity.

For example, in Xia Chujian's home, Xia Yuanfang prefers to cook with open flames and doesn't like to use induction cookers, so their home also has natural gas.

Natural gas has a characteristic: when its concentration in the air reaches 5%, it will explode when it encounters an open flame...

Xia Chujian's face changed drastically. As she quickly walked around the hallway and reached the entrance to the Yu family's living room, the alarm prompts on the helmet display screen became more and more frequent.

"The methane content in the air is gradually increasing."

"It will reach critical point in ten minutes."

"Please leave the scene immediately! Please leave the scene immediately! Please leave the scene immediately!"

Xia Chujian was already standing at the entrance of the Yu family's living room, staring blankly at the situation in the living room.

Yu Wangyou was sitting on the sofa in the living room, facing the entrance.

Her eyes were open, and her face still had that miserable, unwilling, and resentful expression. A trace of black blood flowed from the corner of her mouth, and there was an upside-down glass bottle next to her hand.

Mr. Yu and Mrs. Yu were lying on the ground in front of her sofa, motionless, and looked like they had already lost all life.

The particularly imposing nanny was lying on her back near the floor-to-ceiling window, as if she wanted to escape but failed to do so.

In the blink of an eye, the big black dog turned around and came back, desperately pushing its head against Xia Chujian, trying to push her away.

And a countdown was playing on the eyepiece display screen of Shao Siming's mecha helmet.

"There are still eight minutes until the critical point."

Xia Chujian was shocked and took a step back. He no longer cared about the situation at the Yu family. He waved his hand to push away the big black dog, turned around and went back to his home.

She rushed into Xia Yuanfang's bedroom and said urgently, "Aunt! Aunt! Wake up! Wake up! It's not safe here! Let's run away!"

But Xia Yuanfang was sleeping so soundly that he couldn't hear Xia Chujian's call at all.

Xia Chujian suddenly felt something was wrong.

She rushed to Xia Yuanfang's bedside, checked her breath with her hand, and found that she was still breathing lightly, and she immediately breathed a sigh of relief.

But no matter how she pushed, Xia Yuanfang just couldn't wake up.

What else didn't Xia Chujian understand at this time?

The eye display screen of her Shao Siming black and silver mecha had indicated that the content of Teflon in the air was not limited to the Yu family!

Xia Yuanfang also fell into a coma...

Xia Chujian was extremely anxious and made a quick decision. She said to Liu Shun, who was standing at the door of Xia Yuanfang's bedroom, "Liushun, pick up my aunt immediately, wrap her in a blanket, and come out with me."

Then he picked up Wu Fu, who was lying motionless beside Xia Yuanfang, bent down and picked up Si Xi from the puppy's kennel, rushed back to his bedroom, dragged out his gun box from under the bed, stuffed the house deeds and land deeds into the gun box, and put it on his back.

Three minutes later, Xia Chujian rushed out of the house with a gun case on his back, Wu Fu in his arms, and Sixi between his legs.

Liushun's robotic arm carried Xia Yuanfang, who was wrapped in a blanket, and slid out the door behind Xia Chujian.

When going out, it remembers to close the door tightly.

Xia Chujian ran to the elevator and glanced at the two elevators.

She chose the newly installed elevator in the building.

The quality of this elevator is much better than that old elevator, and it is very fast. It only stops at the first floor and the top floor. It is a special elevator for them on the top floor.

After she came in, Liushun's two robotic arms also slid in, carrying Xia Yuanfang wrapped in a blanket.

The big black dog that had been circling in front of the elevator door also came in with its tail between its legs.

It didn't dare to get close to Xia Chujian and Liu Shun, but hid in the corner on the other side of the elevator.

Xia Chujian thought of its warning just now and did not chase it out. He then pressed the button to the first floor.

At this time, the countdown in the helmet eyepiece was only one minute.

The elevator sank rapidly.

But the speed is still not fast enough.

The sound of the explosion was like a huge wave rolling over the sea.

The shock wave penetrated the entire building from top to bottom.

The fire started from the top floor, with black smoke billowing and flames shooting into the sky.

From the outside, the building looks like a huge torch.

Just as the elevator was descending to the third floor, the deafening explosion from the top floor had already come all the way down, rushing straight towards it like a soul-chasing and revengeful act!

As Xia Chujian listened to the series of loud bangs coming from upstairs, all kinds of thoughts flashed through his mind as he thought about how to save himself.

At this moment, the elevator has just reached the third floor and it will take another three seconds to reach the first floor.

But the explosion was so sudden and violent that they probably couldn't escape until they reached the first floor...

Xia Chujian regretted taking the elevator a little, but if she didn't take the elevator, the explosion from above would probably bury them directly in the stairwell.

Xia Chujian no longer hesitated. He turned around, bent his body, and put his arm around Liushun's cylindrical shoulders. He and Liushun hugged each other, as if they had set up a small tent, trapping the unconscious Xia Yuanfang, Sixi and Wufu in this small tent.
